Fearless! Cheating Death Nightly by Aaron Crow

I was wonder why I must be blind folded when I just wanna watch a magic show at Arena of Genting last weekend. Honestly, I felt anxious if I would fall down walking from the entrance to the stage with a few staircases to climb before sitting down on my seat.

Gosh.....everyone also being blindfolded...guess something interesting later? I was thinking if we would all suddenly being brought to the stage and became one of the guest entertainer. Nevertheless, we were safely seated before the show started. I guessed the staffs wanted us to feel the experience when one can not see. I just got to know it was related to one of the Aaron Crow's blindfolded act which he performed later.

“Fearless! Cheating Death Nightly” is one of a kind show that one must watch at Resorts World Genting. With his fusion of magic, suspense, risky stunts and mystery, Aaron is able to capture the attention of a crowd without uttering a single word. From there, he earned the nickname "The Silent Mentalist."

The Belgium born, silent mentalist has impressed even the likes of Simon Cowell, and won second place under Mental Magic at the World Championships of Magic, the largest competition of its kind that is held every three years. There, he battled against 150 other world renowned acts in front of a crowd of 2,500 people.

Crow's official website states: "At the age of three, Aaron was rushed to hospital with a needle stuck in his throat. It was a frightening experience, although luckily he made a complete recovery. But it was his encounter with a mouse that crawled on his back while he was in bed when he was five that first inspired him—it made him think about fears and how people overcome them.

“Fearless! Cheating Death Nightly” features a positive theme—facing and overcoming our fears. Aaron sees himself as a “warrior with a mission.” “We can all overcome our fears, we can all become stronger. The time is now; a new year, a new you, a fearless you,” he says.

At my own seat, I could see him ate the needle and lastly threading the needle out from his mouth. I was sweat watching his terrifying brilliant presentation.

Following after the needle eating, he soon poured the hot candle wax over his eyes. I was like :O ouch....I felt the pain instead. He covered his face with bandages, black tape and foil. He then used a Knife to slice the bag, nunchucks to break the board, and a Katana to slice the pineapple in two – all without injuring any of his volunteers. (check my 3 mins video recorded)

This popular act is proudly known as “Supravision,” possibly the most spectacular blindfold act in the world. Highly original and authentic, his routines are performed in silence with the exception of some spine-tingling eerie music in the background.

I was glad to be invited for the special preview of his magic show last weekend. It was indeed intriguing and his performance never fails to wow his audience.

At Resorts World Genting, Aaron's “Fearless! Cheating Death Nightly” promises to deliver his unique brand of magic and mystery. The show will be held at the Genting International Showroom daily from 18 March to 15 May, 9pm; with matinee show at 4pm. Guests can expect an evening of highly original, heart-stopping, thrilling and truly spectacular acts that will leave them at the edge of their seats throughout.

I blogged about my Langkawi trip not long ago exactly was 2 years back here. To enjoy the beautiful scenery along the journey, my friends and I decided to make a road trip to Langkawi by bus for my second time there. For those who never travel to Langkawi, mainland vehicles are not allowed to enter into Langkawi. Thus, we either chose to disembark at Kuala Kedah jetty or Kuala Perlis jetty to board the ferry to Langkawi Island.

Well, the whole bus journey could be a torture especially sitting long hours on a bus without a proper sleeping position. We took the bus at night in BTS KL bus terminal and estimated reach the place in the morning. The bus fare for one way is about RM 47+. The passengers who boarded the bus were not many as I expected and thought we could have free seating. But I was wrong, the worst part is the uncountable stops along the way. They disembarked passengers starting from Ipoh to Kangar, Alor Setar, Sungai Petani, Kulim, Jitra, Baling, Kuala Kedah and etc. Every…

Whenever I mentioned Muar to my friends, first impression they have is the place kinda "ulu" or only otak-otak. They said: "nothing much there! " I have been to Muar two years back (2016) when I attended my friend's wedding. Comparing to those times, I see some improvement in the tourism product, most obvious changes would be the Muarian favourite place: Tanjung Emas! This would be on my next post sharing perhaps!

I'm going to share with you guys a fun place which you could have a boat ride to the sea to enjoy the freshest mussels from kelong. This place is called Desa Keroma Eco Resort at Parit Keroma, Muar.

Everyone wore the life jacket before going down to the boat. The jetty was not completed when we visited, the resort manager said they were still using the villager's public used jetty to board the boat. The jetty was a bit run down. I could not get down without help.

There was about 10 of us in the boat. The sunlight was strong above us. But luckily…

There are few more days ahead before Chinese New Year! Have you shopped enough for this coming festive? It is too fast for me that CNY is coming soon. Nothing seems to change as the time flies except the fact that I'm still single...LOL Anyway, I just discovered another worth visiting shop in One City Skypark which you could find some lovely preloved items that you want to bring home. Jalan Jalan Japan is opened quite some time ago back to 2016 but this was truly my first visit to the store. As stated in their website, Jalan Jalan Japan has a good spread of preloved goods, all brought in from Bookoff Corporation Japan. Thus as the name suggested, you could find a lot of Japanese used goods here!

Some of the items I never ever see before like the two things I'm holding. Do you have any idea what are these and what they used for?

Goods at Jalan Jalan Japan are arriving at the rate of one container a week. It could be expected that there are some new stocks every week.

One of the Muar attraction for tourists is Tan Kok Leyong Nursery, the name always being spelt wrong by people. I never heard of this place until I been brought to here. In KL, whenever we wanna buy a beautiful bonsai or flowers, the first place came to our minds is Sg Buloh. Nevertheless, I have been told that in Muar alone, there are around 300 nurseries in the state. Most of the landscaped plants in Putrajaya and Cyberjaya were supplied by nurseries in Muar.

Pulau Rawa is on my travel list a long time ago. I even thought of organizing a trip to there with my fellow uni mates but none of them seem interested. When others asking where I been for vacation, I answered and said Pulau Rawa. Nevertheless, my friends and even most local unknown about this beautiful island. This is sad enough. I am not sure if there is less publicity for this place or other reasons around, but thanks God I have an opportunity to explore the island myself last 2 weeks ago.

To reach Pulau Rawa, we have to take the speed boat at the Mersing jetty. There are 5 routes to Pulau Rawa every day: 9am, 11am, 12pm, 2.30pm and 3pm.

Situated within the archipelago of the Sultan Iskandar Marine Park, Rawa Island is accessible by a thirty-minute boat ride from Mersing, Johor.

In Pulau Rawa, there are only 2 resorts i.e Rawa Island Resort and Alang's Rawa. Many years back, this island belongs to royal family but later sells to companies and becomes what is it today.

Apart from Silver Leaf Monkeys, fireflies and seafood, Kuala Selangor also famous with Ramadas Pottery.

Ramadas is the name of the owner. He born in 1951, been active in this industry since 1976. His expertise is imparted from his father in early year. In year 2012, he took over the business from his father and continue until today. Ramadas has been awarded as Adiguru Kraf Tembikar (Pottery Master Craftsman) in 2012 due to his achievement and expertise in pottery field.

His products include pots, incense burner, clay pots, decoration for house and worship statue.

He did a few demo for us during our visits and we were allowed to try it :)

It is a fun experience. The machine kept on spinning and we had to continue shaped it using our fingers. If we use too much force, the clay pot will be corrupted and we have to do it again.
